Last week, every where I looked, there were posts, scriptures, messages… about waiting. Trusting. Serving in the waiting. There was heartache laced between the lines of some of what I read, there was joy tiptoeing in through others, but it all pointed back to one thing: He knows what He is about. And so, today, I’ve rounded up a few of those sightings for you. His Banner of Me is… Jessica R. Patch’s account of...
